1. purple haze eye shadow and nico lipglass. it bought it because it matched my hair at the time.(2001) it didn't start my mac craze. my obsession is fairly new, as of a few months ago when i realized that the make-up i owned was shitty and what i could do with better make-up. the item that got me hooked was my stud brow pencil.

2. lovin' it light see thru lip stain and clear lipglass.

My first Mac purchase was Lustreleaf & Goldbit eyeshadows. Did those hook me? No since both of those are Lustre formulas I wasn't to impressed with the gritty texture. But when I heard of the other kinds of e/s formulas I went back to the counter and fell in love and I think that was when I bought Humid and Sumptuous Olive.

My can't live with out item, hmm it would have to be the Studio Finish Concealer (love the SPF 35 in it). The runners up are Sunnydaze pigment, Blushbaby Sheertone Blush, & the 187.

My first was Studio Fix, did get me hooked, but not my can't live without.

Can't live without, Naked Lunch e/s, this is my all time fav!

My first MAC purchase occurred when I ordered "Frankly Scarlet" powder blush online.
I was looking for red blush, and no other line seemed to offer it. The price seemed outrageous to me(I'd always been a drugstore shopper) but I splurged and never looked back!
Next I bought a couple of Lipglasses. Then I went for "Fuchsia" pigment, and that's the one that got me hooked!
I'm in a lipstick phase right now; earlier this year it was blush.
My can't-live-without is a toss-up between "Snowgirl" Lipglass and "Silver Ring" eyeshadow.
What do you all think makes these products so magical?

Lucky Green eye shadow was my first MAC product, and I can't live without KID eye shadow

Good question, LOL! I certainly wish I knew but, I'll tell you what, there is something about MAC and the anticipation and excitement that I get from seeing and using the products that I have *never* experienced with any other line. And I've never heard people so drawn and addicted to any of the other lines like we MACaholics are! It's really kind of scary...

First - Seedy Pearl and Jest

Cant live without - shroom, MSFs, fluid liners and Maidenchant blushcreme

what got me hooked- all the e/s choices. and the super nice M/A at my old counter. She made it fun
